I would be interested in the work that you have completed in your portfolio.

I have a few jobs that I am trying to fill right now.

I need a wordpress add-on/plugin  (see more here:  https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.7703673 )

I also am looking for a crypto trading platform.  (see more here:  https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.7587594 )

If you have developed any of these types of applications, please send me a PM with an offer. 

Offer should be:   What you can do, and how much it will cost me, and how much support after the completion is provided

Would prefer to use escrow, and I will pay the fees.

Here is a list of my technical skills
6+ years experience with Python and SQL.
4+ years experiency with Javascript (3 of which were focused on Node)
2+ years experience with C++, Perl, PHP, Java, and Lua.
1+ years experience with Haskell, C, and C#.
Have played with many others including Common Lisp, Ruby, Go, and Clojure


Python

I’ve spent the last 5 years programming in Python, 3 of that was professional. Most of my experience with Python is centered around writing Django applications.

Some things I’ve built outside of web applications:

    A command line task management system
    Screen scrapers
    Feed aggregators
    Plugins and extensions for various tools that embed Python.

Django

If I am going to write a web app, I am probably going to start with django-admin.py startproject . I’ve been using it for years now on projects both large and small.

Here are some highlights of from Django projects I’ve worked on.

    Three sites that shared the same code base and served a large number of users.
    OAuth2 (spec 10 and 11) based signup and authentication.
    Upgrading between multiple Django versions.
    Numerous community and small business sites.

Celery

I use this when I need to offload tasks in Django based sites. Here are a few things I have done with it:

    Helped architech and develop a lazy caching backend that updated itself out of band using Celery, or calculated in line if celery hadn’t updated the cache yet.
    Divided tasks into separated queues so the Celery daemon could be shared to multiple servers.

Fabric

This tool has saved me hours, if not days of my life.

    I have ran 2 sprints on it, one PSF sponsored, the other at PyCon.
    Made deployment simple and very reproducible causing it to be fast and take care of all the repetitive details for the team.

Redis

I reach for this when I want a key/value store or centralized pub/sub. I have use it for:

    Django caching backend.
    Django session storage.
    Celery queue backend (including connection pooling)
    Micro services based IRC bot using Redis’ pub/sub as a transport.

PostgreSQL

This is my preferred relational database. It scales pretty well, it is open source, and I’ve come to rely on it anytime I need a database.

    Have used tools such as pgfouine to profile and optimize usage.
    Used pgbouncer to do connection pooling to decrease latency.
    Have scaled to tables with millions of rows.

JavaScript

I’ve used it for many years now. Mostly doing front end work on the web. But more recently I’ve also done things like building a Firefox add-on, and many little micro-services.
jQuery

When I am doing JavaScript for the sake of front end development I tend to lean on this library quite a bit for its selectors and other niceties.

    Built many dynamic front ends using AJAX
    Built a Firefox Add-on that uses jQuery to build and modify most of the DOM.

Firefox Add-on SDK

I’ve only built one but plan on building more.

    An add-on for listing GitHub repos and quick links for them (code, issues, wiki, etc)

Node

It sparked the fire in me to really start enjoying JavaScript. I have been using it to build out co-operative micro-services such as:

    An IRC bot.
    A layer for receiving web hooks.
    A GitHub post receive hook processor.
    Process management for all of these micro-services.


Other Skills

A listing of my less technical skills and development methodologies that I wasn’t sure where else to put.
Agile

I have never worked anywhere that implemented any of the agile methodologies fully. But I have worked with several of the techniques found in Scrum and XP, including:

    Pair programming
    Continuous integration
    Sprint based development
    Test driven development
    Collecting and writing user stories




Anyone interested in my developmental skills, i can send you a list of my previous employers and detailed descriptions of such "gigs"

I prefer long projects. Also a 35% deposit of total projected project costs are due upfront. PM ME IF INTERESTED! Looking forward to working with you!!!
